Just a heads-up for anyone struggling with blank bars in Power BI’s native visuals:
If a value is null (e.g., Gross Revenue PY missing for a country), Power BI simply skips it — no bar, no label, nothing.
There is no built-in setting to display null as 0 in clustered or bar charts, even if you enable “Show items with no data.”
Workaround? Use Inforiver Analytics+ (from AppSource):
It includes a “Treat blanks as zero” setting and shows $0 or 0% properly — no DAX needed.
Hopefully, Microsoft adds this logic to native charts soon — it’s a basic need for comparisons.
